Election Booth

that was a good answer. I did find most people voted for the better answers.

Loony BoB

02-21-2004, 07:49 AM

*puts fire_of_avalon on a pedestal*

She's the real winner in all of this. I think everyone should say something nice and cool to/for fire_of_avalon.

EDIT: Tsk at some of those people from the elitist party. You should be ashamed of yourselves. You disgrace the history of the newbie party. Especially Nait, Yamaneko and Del Murder! I'm schocked. And ShlupQuack, Little Miss I Don't Believe In Elitism!

Of course, The Newbie Party - along with other pro-newbie parties - proved once and for all that the power of the Newbie is greater than the power of the Elitist.

Election Booth

02-21-2004, 07:57 AM

fire_of_avalon is a she.

02-21-2004, 07:59 AM

yeah go pirates!

Del Murder

02-21-2004, 08:05 AM

I'm pretty proud of the team of elitists I put together. I even had Aexoden and BatChao as reserves. Too bad over half my squad didn't vote, the chumps.

Election Booth

02-21-2004, 08:09 AM

voting turnout among candidates was pretty pathetic. Over half the sex slaves and conservatives didn't vote.

escobert

02-21-2004, 08:09 AM

Yeah too bad the pirates dominated!

CloudDragon

02-21-2004, 08:12 AM

Heh. I knew it was all people like that. I voted for 4 of them I think, and I voted for Ashley I remember and she won.

Being that Pirate party won the most forums, does that mean HOOTERS wins again? ;_;

Election Booth

02-21-2004, 08:18 AM

no, BoB won.

Auron_Kotetsu

02-21-2004, 08:20 AM

I'm... speechless.

Thanks to everyone. Seriously. And this was a lot of fun. Not only did I get to read a bunch of stuff, but i also was introduced to 8-Bit Theater by Sadia! (I've been reading them from the beginning all night... I'm now on #295. Good stuff, that)

So what does one do when one is a forum rep?

Man, I'm thiiiis close to quivering with excitement!!!

TheAbominatrix

02-21-2004, 08:39 AM

Thanks so much CloudDragon, and thanks to everyone who voted for me. I'd also like to thank Jesus and Iron Chef Morimoto.

Maxico

02-21-2004, 10:40 AM

WHooot....even though I didn't get elected I think its a....whhoooot.... moral victory for all of us. I wanna thank my ma and my pa and my uncle and auntie and uh oh I 'aint said woot for a while ..... WHOOOOT.

american fan steriotypes apart, I should have spent waaay more time in the candidates speak thread than I did. Well being away for two days didn't help. Although next time there should be less people. Its weird having more candidates voting than people. Kinda like the elections here in britain :) .

Evelia

02-21-2004, 10:44 AM

Congratulations to all the winners! =D=D

Loony BoB

02-21-2004, 10:46 AM

I think it would be appropriate to put up the names of all the members of the Newbie Party who, together, made this victory a possibility - and a reality.

Ariel, Axamenta, Baloki, Chibi Youkai, Enoki, Evelia, fire_of_avalon, Juggla, Loony BoB, Rainecloud, Ranti84, Shorty and Star were the volunteering members who took part in this valiant crusade. Each and every one of them played a vital part in achieving this victory, defeating the larger popular elitist mysterious parties (of doom).

EDIT: But in all seriousness, this election was really cool. Much more involving and well organised. Good job, eest, and all the other people involved. 'twas fun. =]

EDIT: We're all winners actually, since it doesn't look like there's a definition between party leaders winning and most parties winning... Apart from Mik and his sex slaves, but they can go have their orgies elsewhere. Hmm. Ahhh well, so long as we won something, I'm overjoyed. xD

Ariel

02-21-2004, 10:51 AM

Congrats to all the winners. :D

And especially to fire_of_avalon and BoB! Great job. *applauds*

Mikztsu

Nait

02-21-2004, 01:51 PM

Whoa, this came as a surprise. I thought I was taking part in... Um... The.. National... Come Up With a Funny Answer Cup. So of course I would... Lose.

Well thank the gods it wasn't Rainecloud.

Enoki

02-21-2004, 02:36 PM

go newbie party! Since i didnt win i'm just going to pretend that both fire_of_avalon's win and BoB's were because of me since i voted strait ticket Newbie. SO HOORAY FOR ME........oh and congrats to all the other winners too.:mog:

finally this thing is over and i can take that banner out of my sig.

Baloki

02-21-2004, 02:39 PM

Well done Xander, you deserved to beat me and also well done BoB for the great job you did

*claps*

Axamenta

02-21-2004, 02:44 PM

I was away for a couple of days so I missed out on the voting and stuff. But since the Newbie results are so overwhelmingly good, I am very much enthralled.

I would like to thank my fellow party members and, of course, above all Loony BoB for making this all possible.

Cheers.

Hm. To counter BoB's accusements, I would want to say that the Mystery Party was, indeed, incognito, and can therefore be saying to help the lesser masses to have a chance in a competition sometimes called a popularity election. *krhm*

Cause I'm helluva sure I'd won with my name alone. >:O

You sided with the ELITIST party. E-L-I-T-I-S-T. It's not about your name, it's about what you support.

Nait

02-21-2004, 06:58 PM

It's not about the name? Then how do you know I support elitism?! It's in the name! But if it doesn't matter, then our agenda is NOT elitism, and you are... What's the word... Accusing me on false premi... ses.

fire_of_avalon

02-21-2004, 07:08 PM

That's like starting a Nazi party and saying you want to enforce social equality and love between catholics and jews.

Oh, and congratulations to all of the other minority winners as well. You all did good. :)

You run a good election, Mr. Booth. :)

I would never join an elitist party! Newbie Party is my home, ever since I joined it under your lead last year. It's a shame that you weren't around for the victory.

Loony BoB

Baloki

02-21-2004, 07:35 PM

Oh well, I thought it might just be cool, although I didn't thought you got powers if you were a reconised member anyway?

Loony BoB

02-21-2004, 07:36 PM

RM's are the people who have contributed to EoFF in a way that has impressed the Forums staff. It's pretty rare that they get given out. D=

I see, oh well, well done NEWBIE PARTY and all who took part, yep including Ansem!

Yamaneko

02-21-2004, 07:50 PM

We're still better than you guys. Obviously Agent 1 felt sorry for the other parties and asked EB (who is his lover) to rig the election and give us only one win.

02-21-2004, 10:46 PM

You know what I'm still amazed that even though Rainecloud didn't take part she/he/it still got that many votes, its amazing!

cool cool :D. I didn't really expect anyone to vote for me, so for all who did thanks! ^_^

yea, I could just change the tallies. or pretend that a bunch of old eoff people who never come back anymore randomly decided to vote Elitist, which they obviously are if they don't come back here anymore because they're too good. or banned.

The Man

02-24-2004, 11:37 PM

What the hell would the Baath party be? And shouldn't it be the Grass Party? Grass-FREE would imply an ABSENCE of marijuana, which clearly isn't what the party would stand for.
